As a child growing up we had a wonderful imagination. We still do. But when we were younger it seemed to be more vivid. Unlimited.
For hours we used to think about what it would be
like if we were this person or at this place. To see all of our dreams come
true in any and every way possible. Just getting lost in our thoughts and
We were in control of our life in our mind. At such
a young age our make believe resume was flawless. We were Ninjas, Military
Soldiers, Secret Agents, Warriors, Kings and Queens, Superheroes the list goes
on and on. Anything our mind thought. We acted upon, not caring about tomorrow
or where our imagination would lead us. We just followed. No matter how long
the time lasted. At that very instant. WE OWNED THAT MOMENT. It became our
temporary but enjoyable reality.
Nowadays given the fact that our adult reality has set in our
imagination seems dismal, unreachable. Limited. Bound by the very things
we vowed would never hold us back which is the certainty of actually having to
grow up in the harsh reality of adulthood. Having a career to reach the goal of
being successful.
Although through the journey of finding our professional niche our
imagination has suffered because of the very feats of personal gratification
due to materialism and borrower’s obligation. We lost the sight of our dreams.
We traded them for nightmares. We used to have fun and enjoy our life as
children. Now it is just the feeling of being ensconced in daily life. If our
young selves saw us today what would they say? Would they call us old? Would
they think of us as the villain or enemy that they had to defeat to be the
hero, so they can be Victorious?
They would tell us and remind us of our vision. They will have us meditate and thinking positively. Bringing us back to a place
of felicity and boundless possibilities.
They would be our teachers to make us realize that we don’t have to let
go of our hopes and dreams to be successful. THOSE very ideals can evidently BE
our success. Making what we have always wanted to do an inevitable reality.
SO. What are YOU dreaming about?
